About this work
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Space shuttle Atlantis is poised to leave the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center and roll out to Launch Pad 39A. The shuttle stack, with solid rocket boosters and external fuel tank attached to Atlantis, rest on the mobile launcher platform. Movement is provided by the crawler-transporter underneath. First motion occurred at 9:19 a.m. EDT. The Sept. 2 rollout date was postponed due to Tropical Storm Hanna’s shift to a northern track.
